With the donations received from the last Golf Event, we partnered Helping Hands UAE in Sharjah this morning to distribute food and essentials to more than 150 workers. Sincere appreciation to all that helped!

Thanks to all for participating in last weekend's SBC-ABCA Golf Invitational 2016 - for the 3rd year running since its inaugural in 2014! We had an overwhelming record turnout of 57 golfers and some 90 diners for the post-game dinner and prize presentation ceremony. Proceeds for the raffle drive will go towards our selected charity and would be announced soon. Till we meet again next year!

The topic was on Expo 2020 (20 Oct 2020 to 10 Apr 2021). Commercial vice-president/speaker Gillian Hamburger elaborated on opportunities for businessmen/professional members of the respective councils. She highlighted that AED 5 Billion has been budgeted to provide business to Small & Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs).

The SBC would like to invite you to join us in reviewing a great 2015. We also welcome anyone with a Singaporean connection to sign up as SBC members.

Elections for the new SBC Executive Committee for 2016/2017 will also be conducted at the AGM by all SBC paid-up ordinary members (please note that affiliate members may not vote).

The SBC welcomes all Singaporeans to take the opportunity at the AGM to sign up or renew their individual or corporate memberships. Annual individual membership is priced at only AED 200 for Singaporeans and PRs, and AED 800 for non-Singaporeans. Annual corporate membership is AED 5,000, with many additional benefits including exclusively planned and hosted events centred around the corporate member and extended marketing opportunities.

The SBC will also be announcing an exciting new initiative with a few other ASEAN Business Councils to mutually expand their networks and allow SBC members access to benefits across all alliance business councils, so there has never been a better time to join up!

Over 800 Singaporeans living in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) gathered today at Burj Plaza, Downtown Dubai for the Singapore Food Carnival 2016. With local favourites like laksa, chicken rice and rojak dished up by the Singapore Women's group, attendees definitely had their hawker cravings satisfied! The event was organised by the Consulate-General of Singapore in Dubai and supported by Singaporean clubs based in the UAE.

Be entertained by media personality The Flying Dutchman and Combo Band D'Temasek featuring songstress Rahimah Rahim!
